“The tour guide Cotton today was rude. He was offended that I asked him if he was from Stockholm. Guides should be friendly and I would imagine get asked all the time if they are local. I’ve done so many tours on Viator and never experienced a rude guide. I recommend resetting expectations with the guides and being nice to paying customers”

“A great day trip out learning about the Vikings and Sweden (past and present). Urban is an absolute gentleman. So friendly and one of the most knowledgeable people I’ve ever met. He is a fountain of knowledge and passes on the knowledge in a way that is engaging and educational. Urban went out of his way to show us as much as he could fit in on one day trip. If I come back to Stockholm I’d actually do the trip again. And finally, he took an interest in what country you were from. As we were Irish, and therefore have a Viking history, he was able to tailor the…”

Review of Stockholm’s sunset kayak and fika tour, with Viking history, wildlife, island views, practical tips, pricing, and booking advice.
“Unreal and incredible experience. The company was very reliable. I booked a group sunset kayak and I was the only person who booked. I was fully expecting to be told the activity would be cancelled but the company persisted with a private guided tour of the archipalego. The weather was incredible the guide Paul was an incredible man. We covered a great amount of distance and passed by many different island. What Paul would usually do in a half day tour we did in a touch over 3 hours given it was just us two. Can't recommend this highly enough. One of the greatest things I've ever done made all…”

“Our tour guide was wonderful and very friendly. We enjoyed most of what we ate, but also felt like a little prep work before we began would have made the tour even better. Our biggest suggestion is that a list of possible food items be provided a head of time so the participants can select what they would like to try without going to places that don't interest them.”

“It was our first food tour and I went with my dad. The guide was a lovely, very friendly young 19 year old lad (apologies I can’t remember his name) he not only could give us plenty of interesting historical information about Stockholm but he also kindly took the time to answer our questions and wrote down some recommendations in my phone. Speaking as an experienced tour guide myself (from Ireland) I can tell you that this job is harder than you think. You need good people skills but also a wealth of knowledge and an ability to communicate that knowledge in a memorable way. I know a great guide…”
